Yeah exactly....I wanted to be, but I'm not going to be. He emailed me back earlier and I'm going to meet him at 7 tonight, so if all goes well and it's a solid bike, I'll have myself a new bike tonight!

finally got straps to strap down a gas can.











kinda hard to see, but its pretty simple.
cost was $4 for the straps. they were 9 ft long each. cut em down to length needed and burned the ends so they dont fray. i can lift the sled off the ground by the gas can, so im gonna say its safe to say its not gonna be moving at all

haha extra fuel for when im a dumbass and run out.

never know whats gonna happen when ya get out in the middle of the bush and get lost.
they aint got gas stations out there lol. only holds 2.5 gallons, so at best it would give me an extra 25-30 miles of riding. realisticly more like 20-25

That is in interesting looking buckle/clasp thing on that strap. Haha if you can left it up by the can then yea, I'd say they're secure.

Always gotta have extra gas. We rode long enough the other night to actually have to throw a couple gallons in my buddies sled in order to keep riding so I could put a few more miles on mine. First time I'd ever needed the extra gas, but I'll never go on a ride without it.

I honestly don't know what kind of mpgs I get. Even with my old sled I never checked. Not worth checking when you do mountain riding, it will always be different. Depends on the terrain, amount of snow, etc. Jarrett might know what he gets since he mainly trail rides.
